"Your SIM sent a text message"

Just after updating to 8.1.1 today, I saw something I've never seen before on my iPhone 6. The screen went dark black, and the text appeared "Your SIM sent a text message". I have AT&T.


What does this mean, exactly? Is there something "phoning home" from my SIM?


Very strange. I see other forum posts reporting this, but they are from quite some time back.


Any suggestions?
